The Cluster of Excellence CASA conducts research on sustainable computer security against powerful, large-scale attackers, in particular nation-states. The Cluster is funded by the German Research Foundation (DFG) within the Excellence Strategy of the Federal Government and the Länder. The funding of 30 million euros allows us to lend excellent support to the needs and ambitions of upcoming scientists.
PhDs (3 years) (m/f/d) and Postdocs (2 years) (m/f/d) for Cluster of Excellence CASA
Research at CASA, which is based at the Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security, follows a strongly interdisciplinary approach. In addition to technical questions, it also investigates the interaction of human behavior and IT security. At CASA, researchers from the fields of computer science, cryptography, electrical engineering, mathematics, and psychology work together in a unique constellation in Europe. This holistic approach is unparalleled and holds the potential for scientific breakthroughs. Research environment Ruhr-University Bochum (RUB) and its Faculty of Computer Science offer an excellent environment for aspiring young researchers. Some 20 years ago, the Horst Görtz Institute for IT Security (HGI) was founded here. It is now one of Europe's most prestigious institutions for basic computer security research. The HGI maintains extensive networks with leading research institutions worldwide asnd with media and industry. Moreover, it has produced numerous successful security startups. The pioneering work of the HGI forms the basis for the Cluster of Excellence CASA.
